• 15 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Were, who is not in the House, to move with speed to find out the directors of that company. view
• 15 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: That company has won many Government contracts. Have they been getting those contracts in a fair way? We want to know the real owners of Lavington Security Company, who claim they are the untouchables. They are in Government officers. I want to request the relevant Committee to move with speed so that this matter is resolved as quickly as possible. view
• 15 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 15 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. At the outset, I support this Bill which has been long overdue. We have had a lot of chaos in the county assemblies because we never had such a Bill to provide a clear framework. We have had many problems in many counties in the establishment of the county funds. When it comes to opening accounts, funds are deposited under the Clerk or the Speaker and there is a lot of misappropriation. I thank the Senate for coming up with this Bill although it is long overdue. It should have come like yesterday. This Bill will ... view
• 15 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: The independence of this Fund will ensure that there is separation of powers between the executive and the legislature. This is something that will bring light at the end of the tunnel so that MCAs can work well. Hon. Speaker, many times MCAs would sack clerks at their will but right now we have some conditions. There is a clear framework on how clerks can be removed from their offices. It cannot be an issue of witch-hunt the way they have been doing. For you to sack somebody it must be on issues of integrity or under the provisions that ... view
• 27 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support the nomination of Lady Justice Philomena Mwilu for appointment to the Office of the Deputy Chief Justice of the Republic of Kenya. I speak as a practicing Catholic. Justice Philomena Mwilu is a member of my church, namely, St. Paul University Chapel. Her Curriculum Vitae clearly shows that she is a Catholic. Further, she is a member of the Catholic Women Association (CWA), an association in the Catholic Church composed of women who promote family values. She is also a member of the Catholic Justice and Peace Commission (CJPC), whose objectives include ... view
• 27 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: to experience, she cuts across the board. We have been talking about the small issues that were raised by the Member for Kandara, Hon. Alice Wahome. At the end of the day, she is going to see light and those issues are going to be sorted out. The issues in the petition have been there even before. They were there during the Magistrates and Judges Vetting Board and were thrown out. The same issues have been brought here and they have been dismissed. We must weigh and do the cost benefit analysis. This is the time we want to have ... view
• 26 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. The Motion by Hon. Ottichilo is wonderful. I did not know that a similar investigation had been done by the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Cooperatives. You research to investigate and answer a research problem. You do not do research to pass time. This Motion has clear objectives which are supposed to be achieved. If at all there is a problem in the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Cooperatives, in line with the Standing Order No.1, you can exercise your powers and order the Committee to table that report within a week or ... view

• 25 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to comment on the Petition by Hon. Jude Njomo, which is very important. Tax evasion is a serious issue. Under the regime of former President Kibaki, there was the slogan “ Kulipa ushuru ni kujitegemea na kulinda taifa ". If taxes are not paid, the Government can collapse. For us to avoid dependence on donors and to be independent, we heavily rely on tax payments. The National Social Security Fund (NSSF) deducts some money from employees’ monthly salaries and keeps it for them so that it can help them when they retire. Some organisations ... view
